When Jarred Wall heard two elderly women slating his culture and generally just being racist arseholes, he decided to take the high road.
For many of us, we would simply turn around and tell them where to go. But that's not elegant enough, really. Makes the point, though.
ANYWAY. Jarred decided to buy the two old dears a pot of tea.

The post reads: "Went out for lunch today. Food was great but to our misfortune we inadvertently heard two elderly ladies, seated next to us, chatting about aboriginals. The conversation was less than distasteful with words like assimilation thrown around willy nilly.
"I could have unleashed a tirade of abuse but that wouldn't have helped. Instead, I did something nice and bought them a pot of tea and left a little note on the receipt. Maybe these ladies will be a little wiser and think before they speak. Hopefully there won't be a next time! #blacklivesmatter #englishbreakfasttea [sic]"
You can imagine the faces of the women once they received the tea. They were probably incredibly embarrassed. Maybe they even wished they could offer an apology, but Jarred went off into the night with his dignity in tact.
He spoke to Mashable about the incident, saying: "They were elderly ladies, I didn't want to humiliate anyone or cause conflict.

"Whether they took it in and really had a think about it I'll never know, but they were at least a little shocked and might think next time they speak out loud."
What a brilliant move.
